Definitions
- the present invention relates to photo kiosks of the type which are typically located in public access locations and which provide photographs to persons desiring the same who interact with the kiosk and to an image forming process for such kiosks.
- such kiosks were typically called "photo booths" and provided an enclosed area in which persons desiring a photograph of themselves could pose against a standard background while a photograph was taken and processed and delivered by the mechanisms of the photo booth.
- the end product of such prior art photo booths was typically a single image of the subject or separate multiple prints of the same image.
- the present invention relates to an improved interactive photo kiosk in which a person desiring a photograph can pose directly in front of the kiosk to have a picture taken against a selected computer generated background and in which a multiple image format in the form of "stickers" on a single sheet is delivered to the user from a frozen image selected by the user.
- photo kiosks are known in the prior art.
- photo kiosks were configured in the form of photo booths in which an enclosed or partially enclosed area was provided in which the subject or subjects could pose against a standard background fixed in the enclosed area while a photograph was taken.
- the apparatus of the photo booth would process the photograph and deliver a finished print to the subject.
- the finished product was in the form of an image or, in some cases, additional separate prints of the same image could be obtained from the apparatus.
- the present invention provides an improved interactive photo kiosk in which, in one embodiment thereof, presents an upright open face which enables a user to stand directly in front of the kiosk, which optically defocuses the background image and substitutes a selected computer generated image, which enables the user to pose and freeze a selected image made visible to the user using a power zoom with automated focus prior to the actual taking of a photograph, and which utilizes a touch screen to operate all functions from a displayed user friendly menu.
- Users may choose from among a menu of different computer generated background images and can pose and size themselves on a viewing screen as they like using the power zoom function.
- the viewing screen has a countdown timer which indicates the time remaining in which to pose before the image is frozen. If the user does not like the frozen image, the image can be unfrozen and re-posed with a new background if desired. Once a selected frozen image is selected, the kiosk apparatus delivers hard copy prints of the image within one to two minutes.
- the improved kiosk of the present invention includes, in one embodiment thereof, a camera with internal power operated autofocus, auto iris, and zoom lens.
- the improved kiosk is also provided with a display screen visible to passersby to demonstrate and advertise the product to potential users.
- the improved kiosk utilizes an extended internally folded optical path lengthening the camera to subject distance to enhance defocusing of the background image.
- the selected frozen image is in digital form and is processed electronically to form a single digital multiple image of the same image in a selected area format which, when delivered to a printing apparatus for hard copy print-out, produces a multiple image of the same frozen image on a single sheet wherein each of the multiple images can be peeled off the single sheet and used separately from each other.
- the peel apart images referred to herein as "stickers”, are preferably provided with a slightly adhesive backing so that they will stick and adhere to a surface to which they are applied.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a direct view, interactive photo kiosk, shown with the internal components thereof visible, embodying the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of another embodiment of the present invention in the form of a direct view, interactive photo kiosk;
- FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing the process and sequence of operation of the embodiments of FIGS. 1 and 2;
- FIG. 4 is a flow diagram showing in further detail certain the steps of the process of FIG. 3 for printing multiple images
- FIG. 5 is an illustration of the finished product of the preferred embodiment of the apparatus and method of the present invention in the form of a multiple image format with images formed on peel apart stickers:
- FIG. 6 is a flow diagram showing the overall process of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
- a photo kiosk 10 is formed of an outer cabinet 12 containing a monitor 14, a camera 16, a keypad 18, a keyboard 20, a CPU 21 and a delivery chute 22 for delivering the finished product from a printer 23.
- the kiosk 10 also contains a speaker 24 for delivering instructions to a user and lights 26 for lighting the subject to be photographed.
- a folded optical path is provided from a view tunnel opening 28 reflecting from an optical mirror 30 to the camera 16. The folded optical path is enclosed in a casing 32.
- the camera 16 is an electronic camera which produces a digital image and which is preferably provided with an internal power autofocus, auto iris, and zoom lens.
- a subject wishing to use the kiosk 10 stands directly in front of the apparatus and interacts with the keypad 18 and keyboard 20 to operate the apparatus from a menu displayed on the monitor 14 and delivered by stored voice instructions delivered through the speaker 24.
- One of the functions of the keyboard 20 is to provide the owner/operator of the of the kiosk access to the software program that controls the processes of the system and to an integral accounting, audit and security encryption file that allows the owner/operator to verify cash receipts by image choice, by day, month and annually, and cumulatively, as well as access to the use of a materials tracking record of users entering the system through its password system, and an out-of-service record showing the various error files and the time and duration of each error and the time when the error was corrected.
- the user is invited to use the apparatus by inserting a currency bill into a bill validator 34, which may also contain a slot 36 for accepting credit/debit cards. Other forms of accepting payment may also be provided.
- a bill validator 34 which may also contain a slot 36 for accepting credit/debit cards. Other forms of accepting payment may also be provided.
- the system alerts the CPU 21 at step S3 and the CPU turns on the live camera mode and displays the image choice options at step S4.
- the keyboard 18 is configured to allow order commands to be entered by the user to the computer interface based on menu choices displayed on the monitor 14.
- the available choices for foreground images to be electronically inserted on the image of the subject are displayed on the monitor 14 in the form of numbered windows, each numbered window representing a choice that may be selected by the user as a foreground for the pose.
- each numbered window representing a choice that may be selected by the user as a foreground for the pose.
- typically about sixteen different image foregrounds are displayed on the screen for selection by the user by designating the number of the window of the desired image foreground.
- the numbered windows may be displayed on the monitor 14 in the form of a touch display which enables the user to select the desired window number by touching one of the windows displayed on the monitor.
- the window of choice is selected at step S5 in FIG. 3, either by using the keyboard 18 in the non-touch screen version or by touching the selected window on the screen in the case of a touch screen, users see themselves on the full screen with the selected foreground image.
- the screen also displays instructions directing the users to size themselves with the power zoom function and to pose themselves as they like.
- the screen also displays at step S6 a count-down timer indicating the time remaining before a pose is frozen by the recording of a digital image at step S7.
- the frozen image is displayed on the monitor 14 for viewing by the user.
- the user may be given the option of unfreezing the stored image and of choosing another pose or another foreground image if the user desires to do so.
- the CPU 21 sends the frozen image to the printer at step S9 for processing as illustrated in FIG. 4 and the printer then prints the captured image for delivery to the user at step S9, after which the system returns to the monitor sales scroll at step S10.
- Step S9 is illustrated in further detail in FIG. 4 in which steps S11 through S15 show the steps carried out at the printer in accordance with the present invention and represented by step S9 of FIG. 3.
- the "freeze" image is received from the CPU 21.
- the electronic digital image received from the CPU is processed into a new electronic digital file containing multiple images of the single frozen image in a format suitable for printing on a single sheet from the sensitized sheets stored in the printer 23.
- the printer 23 is preferably a thermal dye sublimation printer which produces an image by thermal activating of dyes in image receiving sheets stored in the printer.
- thermal dye sublimation printers are well known in the art and the operation thereof will therefore not be further explained here.
- Other types of printers capable of producing a hard copy print from a digitally stored image may also be used in the apparatus of the present invention.
- step S12 After the multiple image file is generated in step S12, the file so generated is delivered to the printer 23 in step S13 and the multiple image file is printed on a single sheet in step S14 and delivered as the finished product in step S15.
- the finished product as shown in FIG. 5, comprises a single multilayered sheet 50 with multiple images 52 of the single frozen image formed thereon by the printer 23.
- sixteen identical rectangular images are shown on the single sheet, but any number can be selected and the images may be arranged in any form. That is, the multiple image file generated in step S12 of the process shown in FIG. 4 may be arranged in any format for printing on a single sheet.
- the image containing sheet 50 of the embodiment of FIG. 5 is a multilayered sheet in the form of a base sheet 54, which is visible at the point where one of the images is shown partially peeled back from the base sheet 54, and an image bearing sheet 56 (shown as the partially peeled back portion).
- the image bearing sheet 56 is scored along horizontal lines 58 and vertical lines 60 defining the image areas so that the individual images 52 are removably secured to the base sheet 54 and can be separately peeled off from the base sheet 54 and removed in that manner.
- the image bearing sheet 56 is lightly adhered to the base sheet 54 so that images so removed retain some adhesive on the back surface thereof and can thus be adhered to surfaces to which they are applied.
- the multiple image "stickers” so produced have a variety of uses and may be used in various forms of identification documents and the like, for example.
- the term “stickers”, as used herein, refers to peel apart images on a base sheet, such as the images 52 on the base sheet 54, and the term “sticker sheet” refers to the overall assembly of the removable stickers and the base sheet as shown in FIG. 5.
- the folded optical path which extends from the subject through the view tunnel opening 28 and the optic mirror 30 to the camera 16 results in the attainment of a narrow depth of field at the range of the subject with resultant complete defocusing of the background image around the subject.
- the apparatus is also configured so that the subject can stand directly in front of the kiosk and can view the image directly on the monitor 14 while manipulating the controls of the apparatus. The apparatus therefore takes up very little floor space and at the same time affords flexibility and ease of use to a subject in forming a suitable pose for the desired image composition.
- the lights 26 can also be more precisely arranged to provide lighting to the region in which the subject will stand while operating the controls and posing for the desired image composition.
- the advertising message which is scrolled and displayed on the monitor 14 is also highly visible to passers-by from the open face of the kiosk.
- the overall method of the present invention is shown in the flow diagram of FIG. 6.
- the method begins with the generation of electronic single image information in step S20.
- This step includes the electronic incorporation into the image of the user of a foreground image selected by the user from among the multiple foreground images presented on the display 14.
- the user may desire to be posed with the foreground image of a selected historic building or monument or with a floral foreground image.
- Electronic processing techniques for generating first electronic image information from a projected image and for electronically incorporating a foreground image into the first electronic image information are well known in the art and will not be further described here.
- a multiple image format is selected for formatting the electronic single image information into a multiple image file configuration in which multiple images identical to the single image are arranged in a selected pattern such as shown in FIG. 5.
- Step S21 may also preferably include, as a preliminary step before the multiple image file configuration is formatted, the presentation of a "freeze image" to the user on the viewing screen of the display 14 for review by the user and for selection by the user for hard copy print out if the freeze image is deemed acceptable. If the freeze image is not deemed acceptable by the user, the image may be discarded and the process may be recycled from the beginning to create a new freeze image for selection by the user.
- electronic multiple information is generated by electronic processing in the format selected in step S21, whereby electronic multiple image information capable of controlling a printer to print multiple images on a single sheet is produced.
- step 23 the electronic multiple image information is delivered to the printer and, in step S24, the multiple images are printed out on stickers on a single sheet in the format as generally shown in FIG. 5. It is to be understood that the number of images selected for printing out on a single sheet may vary from that shown in FIG. 5 and that the arrangement of the images selected may be in any desired pattern.
- step S25 the finished product in the form of a sheet of image stickers, such as shown in FIG. 5, for example, is delivered to the user.
- the finished product is delivered automatically through the delivery chute 22 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1.
- the entire process is carried out while the user waits and, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 using the process of the invention as described above, the finished product can be delivered in less than two minutes, typically in about 80 seconds or so.
- the presentation of the freeze image to the user is shown in the embodiment of FIGS. 4 and 6 at a point preliminary to the generation of the electronic multiple image information in step S12 in FIG. 4 and in step S22 in FIG. 6, the presentation of the freeze image for viewing by the user may be carried out at any point in the process after the selection by the user of the desired foreground image and prior to the actual hard copy print out of the multiple image single sheet final product.
- the freeze image is not generated until after the user has selected the desired foreground image since the selected foreground image is incorporated in the electronically generated image which is presented to the user for freezing if deemed acceptable.
- FIG. 2 Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 2.
- the components of the kiosk 10 are arranged differently from those shown in the embodiment of FIG. 1.
- the same reference numerals are used to designate elements which are the same as those utilized in the embodiment of FIG. 1.
- the camera 16 is positioned directly over the monitor 14 and the extended optical path of the embodiment of FIG. 1 has been eliminated.
- the keypad 18 of the embodiment of FIG. 1 has also been eliminated and the functions performed have been installed in a touch screen 15.
- the user can select the desired foreground image from among the different foreground images displayed in numbered windows on the touch screen 15 by touching the window containing the desired foreground image.
- the specific and overall methods performed by the embodiment of FIG. 2 are the same as those shown and described in FIGS. 3, 4 and 6 and the preferred end product is the same as that shown in FIG. 5.
- the photo kiosk apparatus and method of the present invention thus present a user friendly direct view, menu driven interface which is easy to operate and which give results which can be composed and edited in advance of actual hard copy print out and which further provide a unique end product in the form of a sticker sheet with removable image stickers having multiple uses.
- direct view refers to the open face presented by the kiosk with respect to the user wherein the viewing screen, the opening of the optical path from the camera to the region for provided for the user to pose at the kiosk, and the associated keyboard and other operating controls, such as the touch screen features on the viewing screen, are all arranged directly in front of and interfacing with the user in an open and unenclosed space directly in front of the apparatus.
- freeze image refers to an electronically stored image which is displayed on the screen for viewing by the user prior to the selection of the image for hard copy print out by the printer.
